  • Perhaps I am not understanding your requirement, but have you tried adding an additional condition defining the top end of your range, as follows: * 91-95%* Trigger alert when all of the following apply:* Volume Space Used is greater than 91 * Volume Space Used is less than 95 * 95-99%* Trigger alert when all of the…
  • Yes, sir. Download and install. Functionally, the NPM infrastructure is updated with each release. Primary installations and extensions thereof must be on the same version to ensure that NPM 'works'. HTH, Andrew

  • It is possible to relatively quickly apply a custom property to multiple interfaces across multiple nodes using Node Management in the Web Console. * Click Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Grouping and Access Control > Custom Property Editor. * Add or build an interface custom property to identify the WAN…
  • To fully maintain your data, you will need to upgrade the environment that is linked to your existing Orion database. Parking the license used to install on your new servers, an upgrade to your existing Orion environment on your old servers, followed by a migration to your new servers allows you to apply the required db…
  • n8banker, Unfortunately, at this time, UnDP transforms are indeed limited such that all pollers must be polling the same node. I will ensure that this is appropriately documented and mark this as a feature request for our Product Managers to review. Thank you,
  • Can you confirm from your CBQoS config on the parent router that your CBQoS policies are actually applied to the interfaces for which you are trying see these resources?
  • Dal, To request the addition of the Microtik MIB to the SolarWinds MIB, submit a technical support ticket. For more information, see this post.
  • bobross, Thank you for this excellent piece of code archeology. I'll get with Dev to confirm and determine how best we can provide info more clearly and more in-depth for you and your users/customers. Thanks,
  • ...how to enable the individuals...to edit reports other than using a remote desktop session on the server. I've checked with Development to confirm, and, unlike Network Atlas, which you can use from remote locations that can access your SolarWinds database, Report Writer must run on your primary SolarWinds (Orion Core)…
  • JD, I'm glad you were able to get your database/user set up correctly. Step 17 of the Orion NPM installation procedure from the Orion NPM Administrator Guide provides more specific guidance around configuring your Orion database/users, including password and role requirements.
  • Khan123, Try the following on your Orion NPM server: * Log in to your Orion Web Console (Click Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Orion Web Console). * In the All Nodes resource on the Orion Summary Home view, click + next to HP to expand your monitored HP devices. * Click an HP device. This will open the Node…
  • A few questions to determine your situation: * When you are configuring your alert, on the Trigger Condition tab, are you selecting either Custom Node Poller or Custom Interface Poller as the Type of Property to Monitor? Your UnDP should show up. For example, select Custom Node Poller for a node UnDP and you should be able…
  • It's more flexible than I had understood. Thanks, mdriskell.
  • NoeO, Have you read through the "Orion NPM Requirements" sections of the Orion NPM Administrator Guide, specifically the section, "Requirements for Virtual Machines and Servers"? is your current environment up to spec? As noted in the VM requirements, SolarWinds strongly recommends that you maintain your SQL Server…
  • I'm not Elizabeth, but I think you properly understand the correction.
  • onewhotypescode, To clarify one of your assertions, Orion NPM does support monitoring devices using SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3. For more information about establishing monitoring for SNMP-enabled devices, see "Discovering and Adding Network Devices" in the Orion NPM Administrator Guide. The Red Book you mentioned may be…
  • garysimon, In case you didn't already find this, you can find all support contact information at SolarWinds Customer Support.

  • Byron, As Francois has stated above: HF1 is not generally applicable and you probably don't need it, this HF is specific to a particular use case, related to changing the default e-mail format for email alerts. So, HF1 is only required if you are having a specific issue with html email sent by alerts. HF2 addresses some…
  • Since NPM does both an initial ICMP poll and an SNMP poll for SNMP-monitored objects, it sounds like you have a total of 4910 monitored objects on your network, none of which are monitored as ICMP-only. Glad to be of assistance,
  • Stevenliu1105, It looks as though your custom properties did not make it through your upgrade. Can you: * Go into Custom Property Editor (Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Grouping and Access Control > Custom Property Editor). * Click Nodes. * Is Owner there? * Open your SolarWinds database in Microsoft SQL Server…
  • Let's start with the easy question first: Is WMI enabled on the Win2008 Server in question?
  • In the SolarWinds Orion Common Components Administrator Guide: Using the DirectLink Account.
  • jonchill, The following documentation may be helpful: * "Creating a Web Console Configuration Backup" in the Orion NPM Administrator Guide. * The sections "Copying Maps", "Copying Custom Reports", and "Updating Report Schemas" from the Orion NPM Migration technical reference. * The steps for creating and restoring database…
  • This procedure has been formalized as the SolarWinds Knowledge Base article, "Changing the IP address of your SolarWinds server".
  • kulastone, You'll want to reference "Managing Orion NPM Polling Engines" and, specifically, "Using the Polling Engine Load Balancer" in the SolarWinds Orion NPM Administrator Guide.
  • To ensure that you can acknowledge any/all alerts, reformulate the basic alerts as advanced alerts, and then delete the basic alerts. You should then be able to acknowledge any alert condition. For more information about working with alerts in Orion NPM, see "Creating and Managing Alerts" in the SolarWinds Orion NPM…
  • The following Knowledge Base article covers all known possible causes of this condition: I am seeing High Response Time alerts in the web console without corresponding values displayed on response time charts. http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/2106/
  • Sysfiq, You should be able to use Orion Report Scheduler for this. Have you reviewed the content of the chapter "Creating and Viewing Reports", specifically the subsection "Using Orion Report Scheduler", in the SolarWinds Orion NPM Administrator Guide? HTH, Andrew
  • There are a number of options available in the Device > Device Details > ... menu. device name was an easy one to show. You can also use custom properties to group selected devices as well. The Creating Custom Properties chapter of the Admin Guide should provide the info you need.
